It provoked really visceral reactions! In my periods of singlehood, I dated men black and non-black from a wide variety of backgrounds, from practically every part of the world, except certain Asians Japanese, Chinese. This means they must have relatively less stressful lives. This is by virtue of the fact that white men tend to enjoy more privileges than other men in American society. I could talk about this in comparative detail because over the course of the decades of my dating and married life—from age 18—I did not restrict myself to any one race or ethnicity of men. Get this knowledge and apply it in a low-key way like many in other groups of non-white women do.
